  • A Harvest O F Attainments a Student's History of Amherst College
    A H a r v e s t o f Attainments a student’s history of amherst college G Produced with the support of William McC. Vickery ’57 Design: Mary Zyskowski Text: Jennifer Acker ’00 and Daria D’Arienzo Photography: Amherst College Archives and Special Collections, Mead Art Museum, and the Office of Public Affairs, including photographers Frank Ward and Samuel Masinter ’04 Cover: Amherst College in 1821 by Orra White Hitchcock, ca. 1821 Dear New Student: Welcome to Amherst! The college community that you’re joining is one with a long and distinguished history. Since the College’s founding, in 1821, as an institution to “educate indigent young men of piety,” Amherst has sought to educate men and women of exceptional potential from all backgrounds so that they may seek, value, and advance knowledge; engage the world around them; and lead principled lives of consequence. This new booklet—produced with the support of a generous alumnus, William McC. Vickery ’57—is designed to provide you with an introduction to our history, and with a sense of how the College’s traditions have evolved over time. In particular, it is designed to convey the important role that philan- ANSWERS BELOW thropy has played in the life of Amherst College. The College was founded through a Charity Fund that raised a remarkable $50,000 from 275 townspeople and other benefactors. Over the centuries, gifts have allowed the College to grow, develop new programs, and add new resources, including residence halls, athletic facilities and academic buildings. Gifts from alumni, parents and friends support student scholarships, faculty research, and paid student internships with non-profit organizations.
